rEANS HOWARD NOBLE • COLLEGE OF COMMERCE The Deans of the University are those to whom the student looks with a good deal of awe. Let him realize, then, that these people are as human, as gracious, as understanding as any to be found. Dean Charles H. Richer, Dean of the College of Letters and Science, has been prominent in the University since its early days. He has been instrumental in helping it take the large strides toward becoming a full-fledged institution. Dean Rieber epitomizes to many students the college professor they have always wanted to know. Wise, humorous, understanding, he has made many an undergraduate day deathless in memory. His efficient work as Dean of Letters and Science has made him an invaluable part of the Universty. Dean Helen M. Laughlin, Dean of Women, makes friends of all who come to her. She has likewise been identified with the University in its earlier days, and from her wealth of experience she helps University women in all their problems. Dean Laughlin holds the respect and esteem of the whole student body even though her immedi- ate problems are those of women on the campus. Dean Earl J. Miller, Dean of Men, is a popular figure everywhere in the school. Though teaching economics and attending to the details of his work in the University administration, he finds time in his busy days to talk with students who find him an under- standing advisor and a source of encouragement. Dr. Marvin L. Darsie, Dean of Teacher ' s College, is nationally known in his field, and with such adequate recognition of his ability it is not surprizing to find him accomplished in handling the student and administrative problems.

HARRY M. SHOWMAN MERTON E. HILL CLARENCE H. ROBISON Recorder Harry M. Showman has at- tended the School of Mines in Colorado, Harvard University, and Case School of Applied Science. Mr. Showman was formerly a professor of mathematics. His efficiency has made him an invalu- able member of the administration. Merton C. Hill, Director of Admissions, is in charge of all admissions both here and at Berkeley. Previous to his coming here he was principal of Chaffee High School and the Junior College at Ontario. Associate Director of Admissions Clar- ence H. Robison is the author of numer- ous books and articles on educational and administrative topics. He is also an Assistant Professor of Education. Earl E. Swingle, Executive Secretary to the Provost, is a graduate of U. C. L. A. and was President of the Associated Students in 1931. His primary objects, he states, are to eliminate excessive red tape and maintain a spirit of harmony. As Librarian of the University John E. Goodwin has filled his position most efficiently. From 1905 to 1912 he was Assistant Librarian at Stanford Univer- sity and from 1912 to 1923 he held a similar position at the University of Texas. Donald McKinnon acts as Medical Advisor for Men of the University. He received his M.D. from Stanford in 1931. He is very modest about the fact that on taking the State Board Examination he received highest ranking on the list. EARL E. SWINGLE JOHN E. GOODWIN DONALD MACKINNON 24
